594. Insidious (2010)

*The Warlock opens the door to his lair. He’s wearing a Genco Olive Oil Co t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers and Gargoyle shades. He’s holding a diamond studded goblet of Dr. Pepper*

W: Welcome to my lair…welcome I don’t think so, but enter. Enter my lair if you dare. I’m your host The Warlock.

*Warlock levitates before walking inside*

W: Well, somehow Warlock’s Movie Realm has made it SIX YEARS. That’s right, today is our 6th Anniversary Special. Mr. America couldn’t be with us for obvious reasons but Neyzor Blades is here instead.

*Neyz is in the recliner wearing standard attire*

N: Great, so I have to suffer?

W: Not at all, we usually watch a good movie for the anniversary special. Tonight’s movie we’ll be watching one of the best horror ghost franchises of the last 20 years.

N: Wait, I don’t like horror.

W: Its okay, the story to this overshadows the scary aspects. I’m talking about the 2010 James Wan thriller INSIDIOUS!

N: Oh no…no no no, I don’t like jumpscares.

W: Don’t worry, they only stun for a second. For those that don’t know the Insidious series stars Patrick Wilson, Lin Shaye, Leigh Whannell and Angus Sampson and the stories are great. Leigh Whannell was the architecht of the Saw series and he also wrote the first Insidious. The basic plot is a family is being terrorized by spooks and the oldest son falls into a mysterious coma. The wife convinces the husband to move to a different house but they’re still attacked by ghosts. A paranormal team of Sampson, Shaye and Whannell are hired to find out what’s going on and how to bring the boy back.

N: Its actually a good movie if it wasn’t so scary.

W: That’s the beauty of it, its not that scary. There’s no blood, grizzly death or murder….plus they only say the F word once so its PG-13. I already know this movie rocks so its always good to see it again. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman because its time for INSIDIOUS!
